Stormwater Administration

The City of Roxboro is required by the State to protect, maintain and enhance the public health, safety, environment and general welfare by establishing minimum requirements and procedures to control the adverse effects of increased stormwater runoff, nitrogen and phosphorus in stormwater runoff and nonpoint and point source pollution associated with new development and redevelopment in the City of Roxboro corporate limits.

It has been determined that proper management of construction-related and post-development stormwater runoff will minimize damage to public and private property and infrastructure; safeguard the public health, safety, and general welfare; and protect water and aquatic resources
